Sinead Keane

Yoga Teacher and Physio

I thoroughly enjoyed the Restore and Unwind CPD training I completed recently with Carol Murphy, Green Lotus Yoga. The manual written by Carol is a fantastic resource to have and very very well laid out and thorough. Carol is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in her teaching and I would highly recommend any of her courses to anyone who is considering a yoga teacher training, or to qualified teachers who wish to develop their training and knowledge base. I hope to continue training with Carol and I am really looking forward to the return of her studio yoga classes for teachers
